Experience with Horses

Lifetime of experience, I have been Stud Groom at the Pytchley Hunt 2years), West Norfolk Hunt (4)and just finished at the Blackmore and Sparkford Vale Hunt(3) I’ve only left these positions as my husband has been either huntsman or kennel huntsman and we’ve moved on each time.

Spent my younger days show jumping and eventing my own horses.

 

 

Key Skills

I can clip, plait manes and tails to a high standard, I’m willing to work on my own or as part of a team, in all my jobs I have had to liaise and organise farriers, vets, fed merchants, saddle fitters and repairs, if needed I can get a reference from any of these, I’ve also organised electricians, plumbers etc when needed on the yard and overseen any work done. I’m very OCD on how clean and tidy the yard is kept.

I also have my HGV Class2, although not my CPC yet,

 

 

Strengths and Weaknesses

• What do you most enjoy about working with horses?

Bringing up off grass and getting them fit and ready to go and do what is required and seeing them perform to the best of they’re ability. And turning them looking very smart.

My weakness would be that I’m not as brave as I once was, I like to leave to jumping to others, I can still school on the flat and any canter work.

 

• Is there anything you’d like to improve?

Anything and everything, you never learning and improving with horse’s.

• Why should employers consider you above any other job seeker?

Because I’m very loyal and have a strong work ethic, and years of experience.

Requirements

• What would you like to do or gain in your next job?

I’d enjoy a different area, eventing, showjumping but quite happy to remain in hunting

• Do you need accommodation?

Yes

• Do you have any special requirements for any animals you wish to bring with you?

My husband who can hopefully get a job nearby, we have one small terrier and I do have my own mare which I show and hunt.

• Do you have any ongoing commitments?

No

• Do you have any holidays booked that an employer needs to know of?

No
